Currently, FreeRADIUS uses text files to define realms for proxying requests. The files are parsed and put into a list at startup, and then the core libraries use this list during runtime to lookup realm information when proxying requests.
I would like to use a database (SQL?) to manage my realms, instead of the text files. The advantages are twofold: a unified repository for all my user data (ISP, IP Pools, local usernames) and the other benefit is I could add/remove realms w/o sending a SIGHUP to the radius proxy. Before I go and change the core components within the freeradius library, has anyone else implemented this type of system before, and have a better solution? Can I get this kind of behaviour through modules? (ie, do a DB lookup, and add the result to the local list if its not already in the list etc...) Thoughts and opinions are welcome. Thank you!
